Comparing arthropod biodiversity between organic and conventional rice fields margins

Arthropod capture data collected in 2022. The “month” column indicates the date and month arthropods were captured. The “field” column is the specific field where arthropods were captured. The “trap method” column identifies the trapping method used to capture individual arthropods (SN = Sweep Net, ST = Sticky Traps, PF = Pitfall traps). The “field type” column is the type of farming practice the specific field utilized to cultivate rice. Air temperature, wind speed, and relative humidity were all collected on the sampling day. The “count” column is the number of arthropod individuals per species that were captured on a specific sampling day. Taxonomic arthropod species were categorized by their “functional role” and were grouped into either “pest”, “predator”, “pollinator”, “decomposer”, “neutral”, or “disease vector”.
